<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Bacchus, post: 42666, member: 759&quot;]A few weeks ago I commented in a thread about the opportunity the 2005 Jefferson-Bison nickels presented.&nbsp; Buy a roll of nickels, and send them to friends and relatives as an incredibly cheap day-brightener with the added benefit that you’re planting seeds for new collectors.</p><p><br /></p><p>Well, one of my seeds took root:&nbsp; my stepson told me that the two nickels I sent him (packaged in Air-Tites) piqued his interest enough that he is going to start collecting coins now !&nbsp; Guess he figures that with the 2005-D and 2005-P nickels plus the 2004 Silver Eagle I sent last year that he’s half-way there !&nbsp; <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I’m going to give his newfound interest a boost by sending him my 2004 Red Book (I knew I was keeping that for something) and my <i>Coin Collecting for Dummies. </i>And, I’ll go to a local dealer and get him an early 70s proof set (you can get those for about $6.00; unbelievable).&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>He lives in Denver.&nbsp; Maybe I can get my pocket change quarter collection up to date on the state quarters:&nbsp; I have everything except the D mint coin on six quarters.&nbsp; He could be a handy resource for Denver minted coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
